We do have one but it doesn’t have as much attention even from people on this instance, I included. I understand the idea of using Lemmy.ml community is to spread the world and show reactionaries that there’s a world beyond their tiny window which is not only encompassed by the West. But at the same time is tiring, I like reading the news, that’s how I like to start my morning, but I don’t want to get every day into the same fights because I’m just voicing my opinion, and having to argue against the same arguments over and over again: “China/X country which is bad source so the source is lying”, “capitalist apologia”, “whataboutism”, etc. I’m just not liking it, I love the fact that Lemmy is growing, but it has become a reactionary cesspool. I just would like it very much more if I could just go read the news and either get a true insight or joke with my comrades, and if I feel like it, I go to Lemmy.ml to argue with reactionaries.

Does anyone feel like me? Maybe we could get a bot that cross posts from there to here so that we can get the news without the trash and have it be more active?

    Crosspost bot is a great idea. I’ve manually crossposted before just because I wanted to show a particular news story to a broader audience.

      Yeah, also we could get a lot of news without the hassle of needing to manually post them, and for example comrades like Yogthos could keep on posting over Lemmy.ml and we could get their news still.
